AudioEye Announces Contracts with Two Top Global Fashion Brands

TUCSON, Ariz., June 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- AudioEye, Inc. (OTCQB: AEYE) ("AudioEye" or the "Company") today announced two cash contract bookings with major global fashion brands, further expanding its global brand reference accounts in the retail & e-commerce end market.

"As awareness of the need for digital accessibility continues to grow, we see more and more inquiries from corporations seeking solutions that not only bring best in class accessibility solutions, but also a measurable ROI," said AudioEye CEO Todd Bankofier. "This is particularly true in our retail and e-commerce end market, where AudioEye helps our corporate subscribers engage with a greater portion of their prospective customer audience, including the up to 15 percent that may find it difficult to access digital content or transact online."

AudioEye's two newest e-commerce customers each have significant customer-facing components and e-commerce initiatives embedded within their sites. One is a category leading multinational fitness and lifestyle attire brand, and the other is an iconic global luxury shoe, handbag and accessories brand. Both are engaged in customer education, e-commerce and brand building on their sites.

Executive Chairman Dr. Carr Bettis stated: "These two recent SaaS subscription bookings demonstrate not only the growing commitment of companies to making digital content accessible for those with disabilities, but also to increasing recognition of the importance of ensuring fully usable content for customers on highly monetized e-commerce digital websites. Our qualified new business pipeline continues to grow as these and other new contract bookings expand our market presence and generate greater customer awareness within our key end markets, driving a steady stream of inbound sales inquiries in addition to our outbound sales and marketing efforts."
